Wiggled to the hospital, and wiggled back home again. Will be wiggling this afternoon no doubt, since it's finally clearing (though it's cold and windy as heck!).

Took the pup for a walk, then mowed the lawn & got packed up for a weekend up North.

no walk today. I slept in, and woke to a silent house. found DH had gone on one of his extreme walks without me. Wahoo! I got to sleep in. Jack the cat forced his way under the covers as he was quite cold, so that is what woke me. silly cat.

I admit that I feel stronger and livelier living in the A/C than the heat, so I hope the warm, dry weather stays for awile.:)

short one mile walk today. Had a vicious migraine yesterday and my cold while leaving is doing as much damage as possible on the way out the door. I have never had a cold so tenacious before. So, Im laying low today.

I hope the rest of you find reasons to wiggle things in public.

Good idea to rest up Dej, but great that you got a mile in despite how you've been feeling. :hug: Sending positive healing thoughts and vibes your way!

Finished up with the steroids by IV today, beautiful turn of weather for us (sunny - bad with O.N., but warming up drastically today and back to t-shirt weather from flurries a couple days ago, unreal! The ground smelled like Spring this morning, like a thaw. What a trip!).

Going to find things to wiggle about today. Hope everyone has a very lovely weekend. :grouphug:

OK, DEJ girl,

I want to make it a point to come into Neurotalk more... so thought since that and want to make sure to get daily exercise other than my crazy hard work on my feet at my McDonalds store.... that best of both worlds I could check in here... woohooooo

I am having issues with muscle spasm pain neck and down back.... hit the ER for it and numb stuff right side... etc... as dr could not fit me in few weeks ago when so bad could not sleep... so he of course asked if I have been talked to by neuro about MS... I giggled... he looked surprised I told him how for years that is my reseached answer to my stuff... but MRI are normal etc... he said to follow up with neuro... neuro then ordered new MRI of head and neck.... to check for MS plaques as he said... finally a neuro that says it..

well not that I hope to have the stuff show... but kind of as limbo of having something for 12 years and every specialist I seen other than neuros always ask.. if I have MS... the PT over last few years says I present like a MS patient... so not to think it is in my head etc

ok sorry rambled... exercise... hehe

I biked over to my parents house to put the mail and papers in house.. they are away... the house is not far from here but it is moving.... tomorrow I will get in a walk.... hugsss all, sarah (miss you all)

Took a quick walk today - about 20 minutes -not at a fast pace. Then I went bowling tonight. I know bowling really isn't exercise but when you're laughing between frames it can be quite a work out. ;)

I tend to disagree.... bowling is indeed exercise! Good work! :hug:

:hug: @ sabimax. Im sorry you struggle, but wiggling will make it easier. I promise.

exercise, even mild exercise has been proven to be so beneficial to the mind, the body and many diseases. it occupies your mind, gives you a goal, helps you take responsibility for your disease, instead of handing it the keys to the car. Getting out there or staying inside and pushing yourself thru a routine will teach you how to be more stubborn, will teach you how to roar and say NO! you cannot steal my day today.

I am so proud of all of you! :grouphug:

Yes, there are days when I cant/shouldnt get outside, but on those days I try to do something light inside. Wii, or lift cans or leg lifts from the couch, or arm stretches, and yoga stretches. There are many exercise programs for chair sitters if you google them.

please, my beauties, get out there and wiggle stuff in public!

I walked a half mile today. didnt feel great. dragged back home, but tomorrow is another day and as soon as this cold jumps off my back I am going to be right back at it.

Get wiggling! :cool:
